This is one of the new Horde epic flying mounts, available at 70 from a vendor in Shadowmoon Village, Shadowmoon Valley. The mount costs 200g (no discount available) and the 300 training to ride it is no less than 5000g, so that is 5200g total. Be aware that you need to know 225 riding in order to learn 300 riding, (costs 800g), and you will need 150 riding to learn 225.

This flying mount is extremely fast, traveling at a whopping 280% speed while flying, and 100% while on the ground (the same speed as a ground epic mount). Of course, you can only use flying mounts while in Outland.

This mount might move a little slower than a flight path wyvern (I'm not sure how fast they go, heard it was 300%) but controlling your own mount means you're not limited to following the strict flightpath and could take your own shortcuts. Having an epic flying mount basically means having free flight paths between anywhere you want in Outland for as long as you play that character.

It goes 180% faster than the flight path mounts, so when you are at Outlands with this babe, you never have to pay for Flying!

Wrong. This mounts flight speed is 280%. That's 180% faster than the LAND EPIC MOUNT.

The flight path Windriders fly at 310%, but as was stated above, since you don't have to follow the flight paths and can go straight from point a to point b, this is a much faster option.

By the time I had enough money saved up to buy the riding skill, I was already exalted with the Sha'tari Skyguard. Being exalted with them allows you to ride a Nether Ray, which only costs 160 gold and looks a lot cooler than windriders. So if you got money by doing Sha'tari/Og'rila dailies, then you would be better off getting the Nether Ray.

I like the look of this one the best. The purple, red and green ones look like circus lions. This one is more military.

On a side note, wow, do these things fly! It's such a big difference in speed, makes Outland seem small.

This appears to be a bug with 3.0. To fix it, log out and back in after learning your mounts.

This mount, as well as the other Swift XXXX Wind Riders, have been added to the mount vendor in Dalaran, Mei Francis, as of Patch 3.1.2.

A prime example of the simple fact that petty much every mount looks better in green.

DOES mount/stay-mounted in no-fly/ground-only zones (like the Molten Front, Darkmoon Island, Battlegrounds, and some Instances).DOES mount/stay-mounted in submerged liquids (like under the surface of water and lava).
